DC Declares 2027 the "Year of Wonder," Handing Wonder Woman to Louise Simonson and Stephanie Williams

DC is turning the page on Tom King and Daniel Sampere's run on Wonder Woman, declaring 2027 the "Year of Wonder" and handing Diana Prince off to two new writers in quick succession.

Louise Simonson takes over first, writing the character for the first time, teaming with artist Cian Tormey for a four-issue arc that kicks off in Wonder Woman #41 on January 20, 2027. The story follows Diana's push to repeal the Amazon Safety Act and bring her sisters back into Man's World. Simonson called the assignment "intimidating," given that her arc lands sandwiched between King's outgoing run and what comes next.

That next chapter belongs to Stephanie Williams, returning to the title after earlier stints on issues #29-30 and #35-36, who takes over for a six-issue run with artist Elena Casagrande that carries the book through October 2027. DC says more Year of Wonder creators and stories will be revealed throughout the year.
